Make me


One of my recent discoveries, make me is an incredible and unique band. Make me started in NJ and lasted from 2004-2006. After the breakup members of this band formed Storm the Bastille, Boy Problems, and Street Smart Cyclist, three of my absolutely favorite bands. It is extremely odd to me that more people do not know about this band, I had previously thought that Boy Problems was the first band to do the whole clean-guitar/cap'n jazz with screaming thing but now I think that the members from Make Me where just trying to continue that idea with Boy Problems. Not that its an exact clone, Make Me has a lot more soley instrumental parts, and a little bit more of a 'dirty' sound at times than boy problems, as well as a little bit of singing in most of the songs. The split with black juju is the best by far, even though there are only two songs. The earlier 7inch sounds a lot more immature, with some incredible noodly jazzy parts but also some very cliche corny 'chug chug' breakdowns which are kind of lame but a little fun anyways.
